A petition launched this week calls for the NFL to replace Bad Bunny with country music legend George Strait for the Super Bowl halftime show.
“The Super Bowl halftime show is one of the most watched music performances worldwide, celebrating not just the sport but the cultural tapestry of America,” the petition says. “In recent years, this performance has leaned increasingly towards modern pop and international artists. While this approach certainly broadens the audience, it’s pivotal to remember the roots that have made American music what it is today.”

George Strait “embodies the heart and soul of American music,” it notes, adding that Strait “is not only a legend in the country music genre but a staple in American musical history.”

The 2026 Super Bowl “offers a unique opportunity to pay tribute to American music’s rich heritage by featuring George Strait in its halftime show,” the petition adds. “His performances are known for their authenticity and raw emotion, qualities that are crucial as we aim to unite fans from coast to coast.”
“The Super Bowl halftime show should unite our country, honor American culture, and remain family-friendly, not be turned into a political stunt. Bad Bunny represents none of these values; his drag performances and style are the opposite of what families expect on football’s biggest stage,” it explains. “Again, George Strait embodies unity, tradition and the timeless American music that truly deserves the 2026 Super Bowl spotlight.”
